RE: Commenting VS. Creating Content (For Minnows - Is this the Question or Answer?
I just got the same alert from the esteem app 6 times in a row. It really very desperately wanted me to know you replied and get me to respond through the app.
Which is funny, because tapping those alerts opens the app, but it fails to open the content or post that triggered the alert. I am often left to wonder why and where I was mentioned and to use other online tools to find it.
Also with respect to monetary gain... They do get a tiny portion of the value received by posts and comments from the app.
Edit to add proof of eSteem profiting from app:
Was this your first comment to this post using eSteem? certainly the most rewarding... LOL maybe there is an algorithm built in if you use the word "esteem" in the comment it bumps it further lol
That was indeed my first response using the eSteem app. I wanted to test your theory as well as have it generate the beneficiary tag so I could capture it from steemd.
New mantra: if it's worth replying, it's worth replying through eSteem?
I wonder if there is some limit to upvote frequency. It seems ripe for abuse otherwise.
Edit: It looks like there is a frequency limit, as the post before was upvoted and this one was not... unless they're just late? time will tell
New Mantra - Theory Proven - I live the way you worded it also - and yes I do believe sometimes the esteem votes come a few hours after posting time - probably let's their accts recharge closer towards the 100% end of the spectrum -
Using the esteem app for commenting surely is worth it - same applies to posting - however harder to post on a phone - you can always write a post and save it to post once on esteem..
Us minnows gotta figure any and all ways to help us climb the ranks and help the newest users see some reward.. a day 1 user getting .25 a comment isn't too shabby - ROCK ON ESTEEM !!
VERY VERY INTERESTING - The plot thickens LOL - I had updated the post and included the users that had Re-Steemed the Post in a Thank You edit - maybe that was part of the trigger.. Odd that you got the same alert 6 times in a row..
And I get that makes sense why the debs auto-upvote some comments when using the eSteem app - they are benefitting themselves.. I am totally cool with that - not only for the rewards that I receive by using it but also to help compensate them for creating the app.. I'll have to try a little trial of only using the app for a week straight and then only using a desktop/laptop for a week and seeing the differences in rewards... Thanks for sharing that info with the post
